It’s a scary, unpredictable and hectic time. COVID-19 – the new viral strain in the coronavirus family that affects the lungs and respiratory system – is causing us to question what to do next. However, it’s becoming clearer that we all need to practice social distancing to decrease the spread of the virus.
Even if you aren’t high risk, you may know someone who is and it can take some time time to know for sure if you have the virus. So, we all have to do our part and stay home.
But what happens when you start feeling lonely and isolated? How can we stay connected when we can’t physically see our friends, go to school or socialize? Here are a few ideas to help make it through the next few weeks.
If you are feeling lonely and need to talk, our trained teen volunteers are here for you. Currently, we are available via text & email. Text “TEEN” to 839863 or for email visit: https://teenlineonline.org/talk-now/
